Is plastic a limiting factor for Russian drone manufacturing? That would be surprising, although I suppose that if production was concentrated at this factory then there would be disruptions until other factories were ready.

If they were making components specific to drones, and particularly if the moulds and other model specific hardware was destroyed, that would definitely be a problem for them.
I wonder what they were making out of polycarbonate?
It probably wasn't before. Hard to say, but it is unlikely this won't cause a limit. Someone will need to do without after this though it probably won't be drones. Still however that is just got a worse life even if they never know it.
Look at all the people running towards the almost-certainly highly toxic smoke in their safety T-shirts...
